first Baja west-east traverse completed

[4x4abc]

after all the hard core adventurers had bailed out we were left with only 4 guys in 4 marginally suitable vehicles - but we made it!
4 days for roughly 60 miles. 3 days for the rough sections.

Is he stuck? Did you air the tires down?

Cool pics.

Thats quite an adventure. Any chance you are posting a map?

 

[4x4abc]

no, I will not post a map - others may want to use their wits to discover this one without help.

For the same reason I never use travel guides (even though I have written one some time ago) - I want to be my own Columbus, discover things myself. Doesn't have to be a first like the Americas.

Oh, I see the problem there. One wheel drive, yep! :sombrero:

Great pictures!

Looks like you brought just the right amount of vehicles, gear, and labor.

Fantastic trip and pics.

Did you run into anyone while you were out there?

We drove the east and west access 3 times and hiked the impassable 5 miles twice, to see whether our planned expedition could be pulled off. Met only the occasional cow.
During our event same thing - just cows.
Its a very inhospitable, remote area.
